Recruiting Spotlight: Brenton Cox

Coach Johnson and Coach Meyer struck gold once again, plucking highly touted Defensive End Brenton Cox out of the talent rich state of Georgia. Another notch is placed on their belts, as they add another talented Defensive End for Coach Johnson’s Rushmen package. Cox is a hybrid and he is listed as a DE/OLB, and he would be paired with current Ohio State commit, Taron Vincent and they are still chasing more playmakers along the Defensive Line to add depth to compensate for the impending losses after next season because most of the starters are upperclassmen.

Cox is a monster that will only improve under the watchful eye of Larry Johnson. He can bend with the best of them and he has the size and speed to boot. He is currently 6’5″, 240 lbs. and he will be a terror along the edge for years to come. Another great addition to what will be another stellar class for the Buckeyes. This is the first commit since the two of the spring game, and there might be more to come. Go Bucks!
